The Saris Thelma 2 Bike Platform Rack # SA4229B weighs 26 pounds and the Saris Freedom 2 Bike Platform Rack # SA4412B weighs 22-1/2 pounds.
The largest difference between the racks is how they hold the bikes. The Freedom uses an upright mast that connects the bike's frame while the Thelma makes no contact with the frame at all. Take a look at the videos I've attached to see the difference.
Both racks will fit Class I, II, and III trailer hitch receivers, and come with an anti-rattle threaded hitch pin that can be upgraded to a locking pin with # SA3022.
